Out of the 20 little things you’ve always wondered about, one of them probably has to do with the small fifth pocket on your jeans. By now, you might have given up on trying to use it since it’s too darn small to fit anything you actually need. But why is it there in the first place?

The Levi Strauss blog also pointed out that originally, there were only four pockets on a pair of blue jeans, the watch pocket included.

“The first blue jeans had four pockets—only one in back and, in the front, two plus the small, watch pocket,” the blog stated.

“Back in the 1800s, cowboys used to wear their watches on chains and kept them in their waistcosts. To keep them from getting broken, Levis introduced this small pocket where they could keep their watch.”

A watch pocket or fob pocket is a small

sometimes found in men’s trousers and
waistcoats and in traditional blue jeans.[8]

pocket watches, these pockets are rarely
used for their original intended purpose.
A besom pocket or slit pocket is a pocket cut
into a garment instead of being sewn on.
These pockets often have reinforced piping
along the slit of the pocket, appearing
perhaps as an extra piece of fabric or
stitching. Besom pockets are found on a
tuxedo jacket or trousers and may be
accented with a flap or button closure.
Camp pockets or cargo pockets are pockets
which have been sewn to the outside of the
garment. They are usually squared off and
are characterized by seaming. [9][10]
A beer pocket is a small pocket within a
jacket or vest sized specifically for

experiencing minor revivals in the 1980s and
early 2000s.

To my Understanding,

It says on the Levi Strauss website, “Originally included as protection for pocket watches, thus the name, this extra pouch has served many functions, evident in its many titles: frontier pocket, condom pocket, coin pocket, match pocket and ticket pocket, to name a few.”
What i am trying to say is that the little extra pocket was actually made for pocket watches but serves a lot of other functions these days where most people use wristwatches and not pocket watches, so you can keep a lot of other things in it, from SD cards to Sim cards, condoms, tickets or anything you want to keep in it, it is very much safer to keep little things inside it. But its your pocket so you decide what you want to safely keep inside it

It was originally designed as protection for pocket watches, this extra pouch/pocket has served many functions nowadays, frontier pocket, condom pocket, coin pocket, match pocket and ticket pocket, etc

The tiny pocket on a pair of classic blue jeans is
traditionally called the fifth pocket, hence the term
“five pocket jeans”.
When blue jeans were introduced in in the late
1800’s/early 1900’s, the fifth pocket was created to
hold a standard sized pocket watch, with the chain
held in place by the little loop. Of course, that was
back in the days when pocket watches weren’t a
showy accessory, but a regular addition to most
men’s daily wear. The small pocket protected the
watch from scratching and was small enough to
secure it in place without worry of losing it.
Nowadays most people get the time from a
wristwatch (or their phone!), so why keep the fifth
pocket? The simple answer is tradition; a nod to
days of old. I love these little traditions, that can be
found all around us if you look carefully
enough…but, then again, I’m old fashioned.
The fifth pocket can just be ignored or used for
modern day life. Some ideas for things to store in
the 5th pocket are: subway token, loose change, a
hair elastic, a lucky token, iPhone shuffle or a love
note.

Originally jeans was designed for construction workers and engineers. So the tiny jean pocket was primarily made to keep small working clock used by the construction workers and engineers.
But nowadays the usefullness of the tiny pocket can be seen in keeping other tiny objects such as sim cards, small key, pins for sim card port, e.t.c.

Yes please.
It’s a watch pocket, originally for men who wore pocket watches and needed a protective place to store them. Though, as Levi’s jeans(the biggest jeans designers) points out, the pocket has also served many other purposes over time, from condom storage to coin hoarding. Thank you

Well, today, it doesn’t really serve a purpose, but it used to in the late 1800s. The small pocket is actually called a watch pocket because it was originally intended as a safe place for men to store their pocket watches. It dates back to Levi’s first ever pair of jeans, which hit the market in 1879.

Although to me I guess the tiny little pocket is used to hide small objective like SIM cards, memory cards, sometimes most people use it in keeping money from misplacing me. And like they say in the 1800’s that it is use to keep watches and other items. That what I understand about that. Thank you

There isn’t much you can do with the tiny pocket. Some people suggest using them to keep coins or keys, but they tend to dig into your hip. Others recommend them for matches, condoms, and tickets, but those are difficult to extract if your fingers aren’t similarly tiny. The pockets are somewhat helpful for carrying small pieces of hand jewelry for a few moments – like if you plan to propose to her.

The tiny pocket on a Jean was meant to serve as a watches pocket, and its mostly used by cowboys. But it’s no longer effective for this purpose again as it has been seen to be useful for some other purpose like keeping tiny or small items safe.

It’s a watch pocket, originally for men who wore pocket watches and needed a protective place to store them.The pocket has also served many other purposes over time, from condom storage to coin hoarding.it was put into design to protect cowboys pocket watches from falling out of the pant as rode around on horses or walk on ranches.

The tiny pocket was first introduce purposely because of the cowboys that wear their watches on chains and kept them in their waistcosts that leads Levis to introduced the tiny pocket where they can keep their watch I think apart from being a cowboy you can also use the tiny pocket to keep small things that might be difficult to easily locate in the big pocket Eg sim card, memory cards and lot more

Centuries or decades ago, the tiny pocket on jeans were used by cowboys to place their hats for safe keeping but nowadays. The use of this pocket has been used for various reason They are used to keep petty items like wristwatches,coins, condoms and other little items but majorly the jeans were made to put or hang in chain

To my own observation on the inner small pocket in one side of the front pockets of Jean trouser,though it was introduced in the 1800 mainly for the cowboys,to ease them from there watch get broken,cause back then they wear there watches on chain…so Levis designed this to ease them.

Well,the pocket was first introduced by LEVIS JEANS COMPANY. They considered cowboy in their production because of the stress they go through in keeping their watches. Predominantly,they call it WATCH POCKET,but now all other jeans companies found it more important than keeping of watches alone. Many other small objects can be kept there for saver safety and beautification.Iyiola Olufemi F.

it was originally used for keeping pocket size wrist watch and it can also be used for modern life like keeping of subway token, loose change, a hair elastic,a lucky token, iPhone shuffle a love note, key etc

The tiny pocket watch is used to keep small pocket watch workers uses in their work place mostly engineers and contractors according to research but currently most people don’t know the usage of it.The tiny pocket isn’t a waste although,people use it in this 21st century to keep tiny objects like memory card,sim,earring hook,finger rings,sometimes money are kept in it. *Thank you*

Mainly introduced by LEVIS JEAN COMPANY,just to take care of COWBOY WATCHES,but today other jean companies found it more important than just watches,other small objects can be kept there,also fashion purposes…

That pocket was mainly created for pocket watches.. Back in the 80’s cow boys were the one’s wearing this jeans regularly.. So it was attached for the purpose of them putting their pocket watches.. And since then jeans has carried such design up until now

The usefullness of these tiny pocket; sometimes save the little struggle/hard earn cash or memorandum note. Which can last weeks or months. It can also use for keeping important item like sim &memory cards even coins, but can’t last longer.
And i know the usefullness at the age of 11.

“The secret of success is to find a need and fill it”. If the quotation aforestated is anything to go by, then the origin and usefulness of tiny pocket in Jeans is as a result of diligent application of that saying.
Back in the 1800s the Cowboys used to wear their wrist watch on their chains and more often than not lost it while riding their horses. Levi Strauss an unaccomplished miner came with a revolutionary idea of making and designing a thick, durable, rugged and affordable shorts and trousers called Levi Jeans for miner to aid their mining jobs. It instantly became a huge success and put Levi in business of expanding his line of clothing.
Levi being an entrepreneur of imaginative mind saw a need to his Jeans designs and added a little extra in creating a tiny pocket (just above the right pocket) also known as the fifth pocket in his Jeans.
This tiny pocket became a revolutionary success . Cowboys put the wrist watch and chains in this tiny pocket. Miners also started putting their watches, coins , gold nuggets and keys inside this tiny pocket for safety. Other Jeans designers copied the tiny pocket designs. Up till today the watch pocket, coin pocket , ring pocket , key pocket as may be called has not failed to be useful for safe keep of tiny but important valuables.

For what it’s worth, the tiny, seemingly useless pocket is still used in modern language according to the Urban Dictionary and is a convenient place to store drugs, but I don’t know anything about that!

It doesn’t really serve its original purpose since pocket watches are rarely available. Today people use it for storage of small/tiny but very important objects like sim cards, SD card, condoms, coin/paper currencies etc because if one keep any of these items in the main pocket it can easily fall off maybe when you deep your hand into your main pocket, when you try bringing out something from your main pocket, when running or doing some other things. It can also be used for hiding of things especially when you know you’ll be searched.
